Lyrics, Romanization & English Translation

Tracing our fingers from right to left, we're too drunk to even walk

And all of a sudden you bring up our

Problems so I guess you want to talk

'Cause they say the bigger the love the harder the fall

Well, I'm crashing through the floor

Said you're leaving when the morning comes

All packed up

If the feeling's gone, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake with me

Just keep on holding on, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake with me

All our memories are packed into boxes stacked up against the door

'Cause they say the bigger the love the harder the fall

Well, I'm crashing through the floor

Mmm

Still feel your breath on my lips as you're walking out the door

But my hand starts to slip, never felt like this before

If the feeling's gone, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake with me

Just keep on holding on, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake with me

I've been looking in the mirror trying to figure myself out

I've been wondering where I went wrong

But now you're not here, it's like the daylight never comes

So I'll keep on holding on

Said you're leaving when the morning comes

All packed up

If the feeling's gone, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake with me

Just keep on holding on, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake with me

If the feeling's gone, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake with me

If the feeling's gone, stay awake, stay awake, stay awake with me
